Abstract
A panoramic annular lens optical system is important in circumferential detection. However, a panoramic annular image (PAI) has severe tangential and radial distortion. This study proposes a ${3}\sigma$ guideline-based method, which determines the unwrapping center point of the PAI, and a prediction method based on the lens design characteristics according to the intrinsic distortion of the PAL to correct, respectively, the tangential distortion and the radial distortion. The proposed methods can ensure the restoration ability and simplify the dependence on experimental conditions. The experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method, thus enabling future panoramic optical image detection.
